Loved the hot showers, comfy beds and harbour views from the front windows. The games room was a great evening past time and the welcome basket the best we have ever had ! So thoughtful !! Would love to come back

Firstly the location was exceptional with incredible views. But, the place itself was amazing. It was incredibly well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The host and the neighbours were really helpful and friendly. We even got an early check in! As people that travel with dogs, you often feel on edge about letting them into holiday cottages but you could tell the owners were really dog lovers and the place was excellent for dogs! We would love to come back!

Such a comfortable and welcoming home. Beautiful views. We had a wonderful stay. The house had everything we needed and more. The dog was in his element, such a treat for him to be on the beach for every single walk. Also, a real treat for us that he was allowed upstairs, he is used to sleeping in his bed in our bedroom at night so having to leave him in the kitchen at other holiday homes meant he took a while to settle, expecting for us to call him up to his bed and not really understanding what he was expected to do. What a thoughtful thing for the lovely owners to allow. Afterall, its as much his holiday as ours. Welcome pack was delicious, even treats, a ball and spare poo bags for the dog. They really have put a lot of thought into making their guests stay perfect. Excellent communication before the holiday from the owner, and a warm welcome and helpful tips from the lady next door on arrival. Property was clean, comfortable, inviting and truly a home from home (but with a much better view!) Great to have a little shop, pubs and a chip shop withing walking distance, but its a small island so easy to travel out and discover more. This made a great base to do so. I would highly recommend this property, and we all agree, we would love to return one day. One of the very best we have stayed in and we have been hiring holiday homes as a family group every year for the last 17 years. Thank you for letting us stay
